Nothing wrong with using what you've got and upgrading. And the beautiful thing about Docker is you can just spin up the container elsewhere, point the mount points to their new locations, make sure your perms are good, and continue like nothing changed.
It really is so much easier now. And with UnRAID acting as my container host, it saves everything I spin up (permanent or not) in its last state as a template, so if I need to destroy my docker image disk (which I recently ran into) all I need to do is find the template I was using from the dropdown they give you and click Create. Not a backup solution (which you should also have), but it's such a time saver if and when something goes horribly wrong, or if you want to spin a container you used to use but since destroyed back up.
I like how thats not IF, lol. I swear dude, i have so many sd card images ready for when i inevitably mess something up.
Do you use a server rack for your nas? or just an old pc case?
100% when. I've learned that the hard way too many times to count at this point...
My NAS is built into an (I think) Thermaltake mid-sized tower running consumer hardware (ASRock X570 Phantom Gaming 4, Ryzen 5 series G proc, G.Skill non-ecc RAM) with the exception of one hard drive. Both that and my proxmox host are repurposed or custom built towers.
I do still use the QNAP NAS too, though only as SMB for my desktop/NFS for my server.
Yeah, im debating on just diving in and getting a rack, or continue duck taping together rpi's and old computer parts.
Could always save some cash and go the Lack Rack route.

The perfect rack setup, no?
